🗣️'After Ramadan, the weather in April and May is hot, so March is the last time where the weather is suitable.' Saudi Arabia’s F1 race would likely need a date in October or later in 2024 if it doesn't secure the season-opening slot, organisers say ⬇️
Saudi Arabia’s Formula 1 race would likely need a date in October or later in 2024 if it does not secure the season-opening slot, event chiefs have said.The possibility of the grand prix in Jeddah becoming the first race next season emerged late last year when Australian Grand Prix bosses revealed that Saudi Arabia had requested it because of Ramadan.
But while it had appeared that Saudi Arabia’s request would be set in stone, chairman of the Saudi Automobile & Motorcycle Federation Prince Khalid bin Al Faisal said on Friday that no final decision has been taken yet. “It's still too early,” he said, when asked about how firmed up the plans were for Saudi Arabia to have the first race.
“We want to see the feedback of the teams because we want what's best for FOM, and what's best for the teams. If it's the best solution we would love to have the opening race, but nothing is set now.” Prince Khalid said that if the Saudi race could not be slotted in before Ramadan starts then it would probably need to move towards the end of the year, because it quickly gets too hot after March for the race to take place any earlier.
